Prioritizing Core Factors Needed to Sustain Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Programs
Learning from the pandemic
Theme 2: Community-enabled population health and wellbeing2 Pillars: Shared values and vision, People as partners in health and care. The "Recovery and Renewal of Participation in Healthcare" project aimed to strengthen co-design capacity and resilience within the healthcare sector. It explored and investigated co-design experiences and adaptations that build capacity to enhance community engagement with a specific focus on equity, diversity, and…
Translating research evidence into youth behavioral health policy and action
Introduction: There is nationwide shortage of child and adolescent behavioral health providers. Lack of diversity in the mental health care profession compounds workforce capacity issues, contributing to greater disparities in treatment access and engagement for youth from historically disenfranchised communities. Strategies are needed to foster cross-sector alignment to inform policy which can improve mental health care access and reduce dispari…
Codesigning youth diversion programmes with community-led organisations
Codesign is a promising strategy for reconciling public administration and health equity goals. The approach used in this case study adds to a small literature on methods of using codesign as a quality improvement process with applications for government contracting and monitoring, programme development and capacity-building
Sexual health variation among gang‐involved youth in Washington state
Findings highlight the need for service approaches that are responsive to both the individual needs of gang-involved youth and the factors that shape their living environments. We discuss the implications for research and practice, including the potential utility of a harm reduction framework to promote sexual health and reduce disparities in the youth gang population
Redesigning Juvenile Probation to Align With Behavioral Health and Positive Development Principles
Science advisory boards and policy organizations have called for adolescent brain science to be incorporated into juvenile probation operations. To achieve this, Opportunity-Based Probation (OBP), a probation model that integrates knowledge of adolescent development and behavior change principles, was developed in collaboration with a local juvenile probation department. The current study compares outcomes (recidivism and probation violations) fo…
Special Themed Section on Emerging Findings From the Frontlines of Juvenile Justice Transformation
In this special themed section, we desired to highlight findings in transformative areas of juvenile justice operations. Our initial goal was not to focus on ancillary treatment programs, probation programs, court processes, diversion, and/or leadership training. That is, we were interested in scholarly studies that examined fundamental transformations in system operations. We discovered that there was little academically oriented research that w…
Racial disparities in youth pretrial detention
A Novel Approach to Geographically Mapping Effective Family-Based Services
Recommendations for integrating this approach into routine community mapping efforts (e.g., 2-1-1) or as a stand-alone approach are discussed
Co-producing evidence-informed criminal legal re-entry policy with the community
Background: Not attending to local political climate negatively impacts the implementation and sustainability of evidence-informed models of health service. Policy codesign aims to align policy, systems, and community from the ‘ground up’, with structured information gathering, synthesis and creative design methods that incorporate relevant scientific evidence. Aims and objectives: This paper provides an example of policy codesign to develop a ja…
The Impact of Detention on Youth Outcomes
While there is ample research examining the short- and long-term effects of juvenile incarceration (broadly defined), less is known about the specific consequences of the most common form of youth incarceration, juvenile detention. We conducted a Rapid Evidence Review (RER), limiting our search to the past 10 years to include studies that captured modern juvenile justice practices, to assess the body of literature evaluating the effects of juveni…
The Impact of Pretrial Juvenile Detention on 12-Month Recidivism
Pretrial detention, the use of detention to ensure youth attend court hearings, makes up 75% of all juvenile detention admissions. Research investigating the impact of detainment on youth outcomes is limited and, when available, does not distinguish between different uses of detention. Consequently, little is known about the effects of detaining youth for this purpose. The current study examines the impact of pretrial detention on more than 46,00…
Neighborhoods and health during the transition to adulthood
Evaluating the Effects of an Adolescent Family Violence Intervention Program on Recidivism among Court-Involved Youth
Parent Perceptions of Participating in a Program for Adolescents Who Are Violent at Home
A Research Framework for Understanding the Practical Impact of Family Involvement in the Juvenile Justice System
Family involvement is recognized as a critical element of service planning for children’s mental health, welfare and education. For the juvenile justice system, however, parents’ roles in this system are complex due to youths’ legal rights, public safety, a process which can legally position parents as plaintiffs, and a historical legacy of blaming parents for youth indiscretions. Three recent national surveys of juvenile justice‐involved parents…
Achieving high quality and long‐lasting matches in youth mentoring programmes
Mentoring programmes show significant promise for enhancing the well‐being of youth with complex needs. Research indicates that high quality mentoring, although difficult to achieve, positively impacts youth development across behavioural, social, emotional and academic domains. The difficulty of sustaining long‐term matches between mentors and youth, however, remains an important concern for the field of mentoring, as foreshortened matches can b…
